Frees your hospital staff to spend more time providing quality care to patientsWith fully integrated maintenance and next-generation technology, the cobas b 123 POC system practically eliminates routine maintenance

1-and-Done maintenance•With1-and-Done,routinemaintenanceiscomplete

every time you change the fluid pack

Maximize resources•Theonlyconsumablesyouwillroutinelyneed

to replace are the sensor, AutoQC Pack, and

fluid pack

Maintenance is automatically recorded every time you change the fluid pack

Auto recording of fluid pack change also acknowledges the following maintenance items are replaced: a new waste container, sample port, cuvette, sample sensor contacts, tubing, peristaltic pump tubing, and air filter.

Transferrable consumables with smart chip technologyAll of the cobas b 123 POC system consumables – fluid pack, sensor, and AutoQC Pack – come with smart chip technology that allows them to be transferred between analyzers, optimizing reagent use.

Decoupled sensorIf the sensor fails, unused reagents are not wasted – only the sensor needs to be replaced.

Clot detection and removalThrough the use of Roche’s innovative clot catcher and 4 levels of clot detection and prevention, the cobas b 123 POC system detects and removes virtually all clots before they ever reach the analyzer system, minimizing a significant sourceof downtime.

Over 3500 whole blood samples were assessed using the cobas b 123 POC system with no blood clots reported during evaluations in the clinicalenvironment of the University Hospital in Graz, Austria. 1
